Dr. Pomade Posted October 7, 2014 Report Share Posted October 7, 2014 Easy decision for me. Please expatiate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeddyBearFromHell Posted October 8, 2014 Report Share Posted October 8, 2014 Don't know which is going to be more fun...the rumored mid-engine C8 or the C7 Z06. Now, if they do a C7ZR1... http://i.imgur.com/a4Wn3i2.png Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farkas Posted October 10, 2014 Report Share Posted October 10, 2014 Please expatiate. I really don't feel like getting into a long-winded post, so I'll keep it short and sweet. I realize the Corvette has a lot of potential for the cost, but the C7 just looks awful. Buying a car that I'm not particularly attracted to, puts me off entirely, right off the bat. Any Porsche comes with the douche bag stigma(which is awesome), but an X50 996TT will crush dreams with a little work. I still feel even a 996TT is a car that has enormous bang for the buck, while looking awesome and less frequently seen on the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I can't disagree with any of your other points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Pomade Posted October 11, 2014 Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 i don't think you can go wrong with either, but the driving experience will likely be completely different. Yeah, I think it will likely come down to which one I like driving more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AudiOn19s Posted October 11, 2014 Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 While the C7 has grown on some I actually like it less the more I see of it I've been UNderwhelmed by the performance of the c51 cars I e seen set the track. The z06 will be a beast however and no matter the argument for or against it, will be a fantastic bang for the buck performer Different strokes for different folks. I like my d-bag car(s). There was a recent Jalopnik review of a GT3 where the guy makes fun of GT3 owners. It's sadly very accurate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STEVE-O Posted October 12, 2014 Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 That c8 picture is the most Italian influenced American design I have ever seen, and that's a very good thing finally. Hope they don't cheap out in fear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
